(2016·浙江)
During the war,my husband was stationed at an army camp in a desert in California.I went to live there in order to be__1.C__ him.I hated the place.I had never__2.A__ been so unhappy.My husband was ordered out on a long-term duty,and I was left in a tiny shack(棚屋) alone.The heat was__3.D__—almost 125°F even in the shade of a cactus(仙人掌).__4.B__ a soul to talk to.The wind blew non-stop,and all the food I ate,and the very air I breathed,were__5.B__with sand, sand, sand!
I was so sorry for myself that I wrote to my parents.I told them I was__6.C__and coming back home.I said I couldnt stand it one minute longer.I__7.C__ be in prison! My father answered my__8.D__ with just two lines—two lines that will always sing in my__9.D__ —two lines that completely changed my life:

文章大意:本文是夹叙夹议文。作者随丈夫去加利福尼亚的沙漠地带,百无聊赖之际,她感觉到了一种令人窒息的绝望。因此,她写信告诉父母,而父亲只回了两行字,这两行字使作者茅塞顿开。原来,世界的美在于自己看待世界的态度,而不是世界本身。
1.A.off B.behind
C.near D.beyond
解析:从上文提到的I went to live there以及下文的I hated the place可知,作者随丈夫搬去了加利福尼亚,故选near,表示“靠近他”,其他都与语意不符。
2.A.before B.al
